It's not LotusNotes. We are targeting to small open minded teams with 1 to 40 users. If you are IBM you will probably have to write your own solution.

It's not Trac: Streber not entirely focused on handling programming projects. It still has no API, cvs or Subversion plug ins. If you only need to manage one software project without controlling efforts and companies we can recommend http://trac.edgewall.org/

It's not mediaWiki nor joomla: Streber is not performance driven. It will be fast enough for most projects and intranet sites, but it does not feature caching of rendered pages or other performance optimizations.

It's not AlienBrain: Uploading of files is — like with most browser applications — cumbersome. If you have thousands of files and need performance, use AlienBrain.

Streber meets our needs perfectly. The only thing missing is a calndar. When do you plan on releasing a version that features a calendar? Will the calendar be user-based or project-based or both?I appreciate your tool very much. Thank you for making it open-source!

I agree totally: A calender would be awesome.But I do not talk about Gantt charts.I worked with nearly all PM-Software out there so I can judge that very well: DO NOT GO FOR GANTT.Each PM-Tool out there became extremly un-usable when they started using Gannt. The dependencies are hard to create, so many cases... so many new fields when connecting tasks to each other.But a simple calender view would be enough (especially for me). If somebody needs Gantt then I would recommend a totally different tool and would suggest NOT to use streber.

For me, personally, a gantt chart would only make sense in about 5% of my tasks. So I can live without it very well.

What I find best about streber is that its free and the thing that its being updated by people who use it frequently is best in a way that they would be best knowing about the prons and cons of the application and also about the additional required features which obviously will be clear with the usage of application

Frank Yes I agree you can probably earcte presentations with impact, if you use the right Gantt chart or Timeline diagram.I would add that it's important to separate high level information from detail and provide diagrams that represent the “big picture”.A huge presentation no-no is to use diagrams with words that are way too small, and leave the audience squinting to read what the words say.I'd advise following the 10-20-30 rule of presentations (see Guy Kawasaki's blog post on the )
